5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter completed the third grade 2024-2025 and is now in the fourth grade 2025/2026 so she has been at the school for two years. Her progress is visible; she loves the school. We were warmly welcomed, and whenever I need assistance, the staff is accessible.
